Description
Bauerfeind RhizoLoc is a stabilizing support. It is particularly indicated for lateral ligament lesions of the MCP I (skier’s thumb) and for irritation in the region of the saddle and the first metacarpophalangeal joints of the thumb (acute or chronic, for example, in osteoarthritis). It has an individually shapeable aluminum strap to ensure maximum stability. With its Velcro fastenings, the orthosis can easily be put on and takenoff. The orthosis can be adapted to yourindividual thumb size by means of the adjustable thumb tab. The breathable material with its integral pores allows air to circulate, thereby preventing the skin underneath from becoming sweaty or itchy. The RhizoLoc therefore sits securely in an anatomically correct and comfortable position on the hand for effective therapy. Mode of action:
- Stabilization of the thumb saddle and first metacarpophalangeal joints.
- Limitable release of movement at the base of the thumb.
Sizing Take measurements just above the base of the thumb and around the wrist (refer to diagram).
